C019. How to Make Solid Contact in Golf (3D Impact Drill)

In this video, you’ll learn how to make solid contact in golf.

With the help of MySwing Golf 3D motion capture system, you’ll see the impact position like you’ve never seen it before.

I strap on 17 sensors that creates a 3D computer model of the swing so we can take a super accurate look at the swing.

Although it makes me look a little goofy wearing the sensors, I love being able to use the software to accurately measure club angles and body positions.

As you’ll see in the video, I pause the computer model at the impact position to see if my swing hits the primary checkpoints…

  • Shoulder angle
  • Nailing the Compression Line, and
  • Getting forward shaft lean.

Watch now to get a cool 3D analysis of the swing at impact!

C018. Golf Lesson to Hit Pure Iron Shots | Shoulder to Shoulder Drill

In this video, you get a golf lesson to hit pure iron shots.

Now, 3 things need to happen to hit your irons solidly…

  1. Good weight shift,
  2. Good rhythm, and
  3. Consistent contact with the ball first, then the ground.

You’ll learn several drills to help you get there.

For your weight shift, you’ll go through a set of progression drills working through two zones.

Focus on staying in posture as you work through the weight shift drill.

Once you nail your weight shift, move on to your rhythm.

Grab a rope and swing it around in a big circle with your right hand.

Concentrate on snapping it through at the bottom of the arc.

This motion is similar to that of a jump rope.

You want that same snapping motion with your club as you make contact with the ball.

Later in the video, you’ll see a drill to improve your contact.

Place a tee in the ground with about a quarter inch showing.

Concentrate on hitting the tee first, then grazing the ground after.

This simple tee drill will help you develop consistent and compressed contact with the ball.

Lastly, you’ll put all these drills together and start hitting solid irons.

C017. Hit Solid Irons Shots Now! | Forward Hand Release

In this video, you’ll learn how to hit solid irons shots now!

Top Speed Golf Instructor Michael Derr joins me to give you great tips on how to get into that nice release position that you see with all the top tour players’ swings.

First, you’ll see a demonstration of the full Straight-Line Release that we cite in the Top Speed Golf System.

This happens after contact, when the club splits your forearms at a 45 degree angle to the ground.

Swinging with a Straight-Line Release allows you to get forward shaft lean at impact.

Second, you’ll get a quick demonstration of what you don’t want to do — flip the club.

Flipping is the opposite of hitting with forward shaft lean and will cause you to lose tons of distance.

Next, you’ll get a close look at how your wrists should move in order to hit with forward shaft lean.

Note that you’ll also need to sync you upper body and hips with your lower body to open up your body and release the club at the correct time.

Watch this video now to stop hitting weak flips and to start hitting solid shots with forward shaft lean!

C016. Get Consistently Solid Contact | Early Extension Arms Out Drill

In this video, you’ll learn how to get consistently solid contact.

Coming out of your posture early is one of the biggest culprits that causes inconsistent shots.

And it’s more common than you think.

Just take a few minutes to watch folks at the range and you’ll see that a lot of players rise out of their posture way too early.

And, to a certain extent, this problem is likely affecting your swing as well.

In this video, I’ll help you improve your consistency with 2 great tips…

#1: Swing with a Full Rotation

A full rotation throughout the swing will not only help your power, but it’ll also help you hit with a stable, under control swing.

You’ll be able to use the momentum of the club more as opposed to muscling the club around, which is bound to cause inconsistency.

Not getting a full rotation may result in a choppier, inconsistent swing.

#2: Stay in Your Posture Through the Hitting Zone

Mentioned earlier, coming out of your posture early causes inconsistent contact.

If you stand up out of your posture before you make contact, you’ll be forced to adjust the club and may even flip the it just to make contact.

Flipping the club is a distance killer and will make it more difficult for you to hit with consistency.

In the video, you’ll see a great, simple drill to help you visualize staying in your posture.

And you can even do part of the drill in your living room 🙂

The tips in this video will help you make a consistent, full turn in the swing…

And will help you maintain your posture through contact for more consistent contact.

C015. Perfect Impact Progression Series

In this video, you get a perfect impact progression series.

You’ll learn, step-by-step, how to make crisp contact with the ball.

If you struggle to compress the ball consistently, the drills in this video will help you fix your issues.

What you want is to feel like the ball is stuck to the clubface for a good 5 inches through contact, then release the club fully.

Of course, that’s not really happening, but you should get that feeling.

The drills in this video start off simple and focus on impact at slow speeds…

Then the drills build up to a full speed swing.

The first drill focuses on your left hand position.

At impact, you’ll want your left wrist bowed forward, forward shaft lean with the club, and open hips and shoulders.

The second drill works on your right arm.

For many right handed players, the right hand naturally wants to dominate and force the club through.

You want to avoid that because you’ll flip the club and lose some of your lag.

So you’ll want to “pet the grass” which is when the palm of your hand remains relatively flat, or parallel to the ground, through impact.

In your follow through, it’ll feel like you’re tossing a ball down the fairway.

Later in the video, you’ll see acceleration drills to put all you learned into a smooth and quick swing.

C014. How to Hit a Fairway Wood off the Tee | High Elbow Drill

In this video, you’ll learn how to hit a fairway wood off the tee.

I’ll discuss the checkpoints of hitting a high and long 3 wood off the tee…

While Top Speed Golf Director of Orlando Instruction Robin Rosado demonstrates the swing tips.

First, make sure you tee up the ball correctly.

Grab your ball with the tee and stop pushing the tee into the ground when your finger reaches the ground.

To check if it’s the correct height, the ball should be about half way above the crown of your fairway wood at address.

Avoid taking a divot with the 3 wood off the tee.

It’s OK to brush the ground, but you want to hit the ball similarly to how you’d hit your driver (not with a negative angle of attack).

Through impact, make sure you finish with your arms nice and high.

This will help you complete your Power Turn and get more distance on your shots.

Watch this video now to club down and still get great distance off the tee.

Have fun now that you know exactly how to hit a fairway wood off the tee!

C013. How to Hit Straight Iron Shots | “Flat Hand” Drill

In this video, you’ll learn how to hit straight iron shots with the “Flat Hand” drill.

First, I have some great news…

Top Speed Golf has a new expert instructor!!!

So please give a warm welcome to TSG’s brand new Director of Instruction, Robin Rosado.

Robin’s a great golfer.

He earned a scholarship to play at the University of South Carolina and went on to play some of the mini tours.

Oh, and he can really crush his drives.

We measured one of his drives at 345 yards!

But he’s not only a great golfer; he’s also one heck of an instructor.

He has put in a lot of hard work and a lot of hours with his students – over 1400 hours of lessons last year alone!

In this video, Robin will show you how to hit your irons on a frozen rope.

Enjoy the lesson and have fun on the course!

Now to this video…

You’ll learn a great clubface awareness drill called the “Flat Hand” drill, and it’ll help you hit dead straight iron shots.

First, place your open right hand on the club so that it’s parallel with your clubface.

This will help you keep your club on plane and will also ensure that your clubface doesn’t stray off.

Practice slow swings and stop at checkpoints throughout the swing.

The checkpoints include…

  • The takeaway as the club is parallel with the ground
  • At the top of your swing to see if you’re on plane
  • In the downswing to make sure you shallow the club path (and NOT come in over-the-top)
  • At impact. Your right open palm should “cover the ball” and be pointing toward the target, indicating that your clubface is square

 

Overall, use these steps to track your club path and clubface throughout your swing.

With better clubface awareness, you’ll be able to hit consistent iron shots right at your target!
